Communists have not been good at all to the environment which is my main complaint with capitalism. So no, we don't need communism. We need controlled capitalism.

Where has communism been successfully implemented?

Would you like doing forced labor in a job that is chosen for you?

IDK about that, Im working 40+ hours per week now at a job I really didnt intend to make a career out of, but like many other adults, we just sort of find ourselves working these jobs and get used to them over time!!


Although Im trying to change this, my automatic response to the question of "what do you do"....sends me into a description of my job, so basically I 'am' my job (thats just great!!) LOL

At least you have the ability to quit if you really wanted to. Under communism, you just work the job that they assign to you. You don't get the option to be choosey.

I got into a field that isn't my ideal job but I've progressed so far in my field so that the only way out is to take a substantial pay cut and move into a different line of work. It's my choice though to stay so I take responsibility for that. I've decided that I like the financial stability more than the risk of leaving.

Soyboys don't like doing any labor. They want the State to take care of them so they never have to grow up.
